Living life without appology. It's not wrong dear, I belong here. So you might as well get used to me. Happy Saturday!
Sabbath just ended a few minutes ago. I am thankful to be able to post in
2020! A new year, new
opportunties, more testimonies, and more good to come.
I had a restful wonderful 12 days off from work and I must
say the time was truly needed. I
am thankful for a job that gives me as much paid time off and holiday time as
they do and for the schedule flexibility.
I returned to work on Thursday and prior to this, I heard
that my older sister got a job on the west coast and is due at work at her new
job on Monday January 6th.
Today she caught her flight (I think at 3pm if not 6pm which is still
coming as I type). I wish her well
and hope that she opens up to Jesus while she is on this new journey so far far
away from family and everyone else she knows. I’m certain she will be fine, she lived in Japan for a year,
it’s really my parents who I think will be the most choked up over her
leaving.
Also Thursday,
I was driving home and noticed a text message from an unfamiliar
number. I checked it and it was
from a store saying I have a job interview on Monday night next week. That was something I definitely did not
expect. I then the next day
realized a phone number that tried to call me was from the same store, but they
did not leave a voicemail. I
intend to go. I want to do better
this year and God knows how I feel about my finances. For some reason Amazon played me twice so I am letting them
go. I guess they were not for me. I need more money to make ends meet and
am praying that what ever this new store has to offer for part time work, that
it will work out. The location is
only 15-20 minutes down the street from me. It’s not a store location I frequent a lot so if I do
something embarrassing, I’m not forced to roll through there and pick up anything
I need.
Today was the first Sabbath that I directed the music for
and it was a success. I am looking
for all networking opportunities and had a good session with the children who
will be singing next Sabbath.
There is so much to do this year at church and I’m thankful and excited
to be a part of it. Since there is
so much to do, I am forced to come out of my shell and even today did the
mission story. I remember a time
that my teacher caught me off guard and asked me to read what I wrote to the
class. I was so nervous and I let
my anxiety get the best of me so much so I couldn’t even pronounce the word “the”. You would think people would understand
the power of nerves but I was still made fun of for the rest of the semester
and people thought I had an intellectual disability talked to me “different”
after that episode. Not fair, but
I can laugh about the experience now. I don’t know what the Lord has for me to
do, but I know if I depend upon Him, I have nothing to worry about.
Put your hand in the hand of the Savior for 2020 and don’t
snatch it back.
